The U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Overseas Building Operations (OBO) has contracted with Hanson to provide building commissioning services on a new embassy compound in Colombo, Sri Lanka. The award was made under Hanson’s five-year indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contract for building commissioning services with the OBO.

The project is being completed under a design-build contract and includes a new office building, U.S. Marines residence, compound access building and a warehouse. Design and construction is anticipated to be complete by July 2020.
